I happened to have a bunch of AA miles along with a bunch of JB points so when I booked our recent trip and found JB higher than AA for the times and dates I wanted, it was no contest. We booked AA out of our regional airport connecting through Charlotte into SXM with the same routing coming home. I’ve been keeping my fingers crossed there would be no changes and so far, it’s still a go. Early flight on the way to and a late flight on the way from. It just worked and I’ve never been a complete and total JB fan, (beyond really liking their International Arrivals terminal, T5 at JFK that is) if I had good options on AA. So far so good.

Yup..Equipment change on the PVD-PHL flight: A319 changed to an E190 so I guess there were empty seats on the original flight...also....it now says "Change of terminals" in PHL.
Is that a big deal or does it just mean a long walk? 95 minute layover

Make sure you check your CLT flight to and from SXM because equipment and flight numbers just resently changed. You had me worried enough to check our reservations........so far, so good. No changes and we’re about three+ weeks out!

We booked on Delta last June (We had a ticket that we didn't use and had to use it or lose it) to SXM leaving 3 weeks from today (Yes!!!!!). However we have had at least 5 changes so far. Keeping our fingers crossed that in the next 3 weeks they don't change them again.

In August booked AA down thru CLT, back thru PHL to Dsm. Had to overnight Friday night in CLT, in order to get to SXM on Saturday. First change in Sept was delay on CLT-SXM flight by a couple of hours. The big change came last week, Our last leg from PHL to DSM leaves 5 minutes before we land from SXM, Obviously not humanly possible, gave it a week, still no adjustment so cancelled, after a great deal of frustration and resistance by AA, and booked our return on Delta. I prefer Delta but when we first booked it was going to work.

For the terminal change in Philly, you will need to ride a bus across the tarmac to the international terminal. Not a big deal, just be aware that is what is needed

Did that a long time ago, changing from a small plane to a bigger plane. Small planes come into a different terminal..
